We use accents in Hungarian language.
I was born in Karcag, then I lived a in very near little town. I could see the Schück family' tombstones many times. My parents are buried in the same cemetery. I have an old picture about the Schück family. It was published by Mose Hersko, in his book about the Jewry of Karcag,
Thanks! I have the book written by Hersko in 1977, R Shuck was my grandmother's grandfather.
By the way, Rabbi Shuck came to Israel in 1905 and contributed money to a synagogue near Jerusalem. The story in mentioned in a special plaque on the building's wall.
I am still looking for some of R Shuck's descendants. I will be happy for any information.

I am the great granddaughter of Malka Amalia Schuck, daughter of Nathan Schuck. The spelling used was always the German spelling with umlaut. However there was a branch in Slovakia which converted and used the Hungarian version of the name Sik. By the way there was a custom of naming daughters in a sequence of Eszter/Malka/Eszter... so my Grandmother was Eszter, my Mother Malka and I am Ester Saxon.
